Reviews hidden for reddit app on Google play?
(sh.itjust.works)
I still see it.
I see the same..OP can also try click on the review count at top and then click "See all reviews" to see reviews
i left a 1 star review
Google will automatically remove reviews they consider brigading or review bombing. The same thing happens when a business blows up for some bad press online and people review bomb them on Maps. When you go back and check after a few days it’s back to the way it was before.
I hate that "review bombing" has come to be considered a bad thing. It's not always for a great reason, but it often is, and it's one of the most prominent ways normal people have to make their voice heard against large companies. That's obviously also the reason it's been put down so much, but it sucks.
Yeah see I think if the reason for the negative review has to do with specific deficiencies in the product/subject, then its not review bombing. Like for example, with Reddit, a massive numger of negative reviews detailing the missing features, confusing UI, etc isn't a review bombing. Even if its en masse.
But like, a bunch of people leaving negative reviews on a movie or product, without seeing/using it, because they disagree with something the company did or a casting choice, or a statement, is review bombing.
Reviews work here for me. 3.7, with mostly 1 stars at the current moment and trashing new ToS for the api.
Also working for me. Lot of 1 stars!
What language is your OS set to? Afair, Google Play only shows reviews in your language, so there might not be any.
My language is set to English and I'm in Canada. I can see their star rating is 3.7.
As someone suggested I was able to tap the star rating and see the reviews that way, but they still seem to be completely hidden from the default view.
